Right here at home, boys, in old Hoosierdom, / Where strangers allus joke us when they come, / And brag o' _their_ old States and interprize -- / Yit _settle_ here; and 'fore they realize, / They're "hoosier" as the rest of us, and live / Right here at home, boys, with their past fergive!

Right here at home, boys, is the place, I guess, / Fer me and you and plain old happiness: / We hear the World's lots grander -- likely so, -- / We'll take the World's word fer it and not go. -- / We know _its_ ways aint _our_ ways -- so we'll stay / Right here at home, boys, where we know the way.
